Notes

• Crafting tip: For added texture, try using textured paints or adding small, textured materials like sand or glitter to your dinosaur designs. You can also crumble and smooth the toilet roll back out for a scale-like appearance. 
• Create more than dinosaurs: Create a prehistoric landscape by adding natural elements like small painted rocks, dried leaves glued to a stick, or toilet roll trees. 
• Dinosaur upgrade: To make your dinosaurs stand out, add googly eyes or small beads for an extra touch of personality. Attach small pieces of cardboard or paper hinges to their limbs to make them movable.
• Decoration tip: Add a touch of realism by researching dinosaur patterns and adding them to your designs for authenticity.
